About YouWereKilledBy
YouWereKilledBy is a very small, simple addon that displays who landed the killing blow on you when you die in PvP combat. Upon death, a red "You were killed by Lolmoonfire" message will appear near the top of the screen.
The addon currently does not have any settings, you just install it and that's it. I may add some settings to it in the future, but for now I wanted this to be a very simple and tiny addon.
The code itself is an excerpt from the upcoming version of my other project, Paranoia Enemy Player Alert. Please check it out.
Go ahead and post suggestions/feedback/requests in the comments section, I'll try to reply to all of them.

I like small mods, so this one interests me. Just a couple of thoughts, though...
1. If you do include options, the option to output to the Chat Frame would be nice. 2. As above, if you do include options, you could take the tekkub route and keep them as variables in the file itself to keep the filesize small. I call this "The Tekkub Method", and usually it works quite well. 3. I see you're creating your own font-string, but it might make your mod lighter if you were to use the Blizzard Floating Combat Text stuffs instead, thus removing the need to create another fontstring. You can actually make the text not scroll too, and even stick on screen for a bit, by having it act in its "critical strike" behaviour. Here's an example of that: CombatText_AddMessage("You were killed by "..name, CombatText_StandardScroll, 1.0, 0.4, 0.4, "crit", false) |
